Villa Elvi is an inviting haven for those seeking a high-quality getaway amidst the serene Finnish wilderness. Located close to the bustling Ruka Ski Centre, this villa offers easy access to snow-capped slopes, vibrant shops, and delightful restaurants. For the more adventurous, snowmobile trails and cross-country ski tracks are just a stone's throw away. Come summer, the nearby Lake Iso-Veska, a mere two hundred metres from the villa, beckons for rowing and fishing, promising tranquil days by the water.

Stepping inside Villa Elvi, you are welcomed by the warm and rustic charm of rare "kelo" logs. The open-plan living area features a magnificent natural stone fireplace, perfect for cosy evenings after a day of outdoor activities. With their under-floor heating, the stone floors add to the homely feel, ensuring comfort no matter the season. The villa's well-appointed kitchen is ready for culinary adventures, complete with all modern conveniences.

The villa accommodates up to ten guests, with various bedrooms to suit different needs. There's a bunk bed in one room, with a lower bunk wide enough for extra comfort, a snug double bed in another, and a large, inviting double bed with a TV in the master bedroom. The upstairs balcony bedroom offers flexible sleeping arrangements with a double bed and a single bed. A cot and highchair are also available for young guests.

Outside, the charm of Villa Elvi continues. The yard, neatly enclosed by a reindeer fence, features a cosy "Kota" hut where you can grill sausages over an open fire and enjoy aromatic pan coffee. The log garage provides shelter for two cars, complete with electricity points for car heating systems, and there is also the possibility to charge an electric car.

After an action-packed day, unwind in the villa's sauna or soak in the two-person jacuzzi bath in the spacious bathroom. Villa Elvi ensures a memorable stay with its blend of comfort and charm, offering a truly unique experience in the heart of Lapland's pristine nature.
